Ride of the Month - Jordan's Pomelo Yellow MK8 GTI - May 2022
Posted by Sean Kirk on May 6th 2022
I know we're a little late, but Jordan's MK8 GTI deserves it's spotlight! We're stoked to be helping Jordan out with parts for his 2022 Pomelo Yellow GTI and I thought this car deserves a little love! From the outside, it appears mostly stock right now, but that's soon to change! Once you pop the hood though, you quickly realize there's a lot of OEM+ touches going on, where we helped supply a ton of RacingLine goodies!
Jordan is pretty local to us, being only a state away in New Jersey, so one of these days we're hoping to check out his car in person and get some of our own photos of it! In the future, he's planning on some RacingLine VWR Sport Springs and a set of RacingLine R360 wheels to give the car a new personality and appearance! Not only do they look great, but the springs greatly improve handling and the wheels are significantly lighter than the factory wheels too! And of course he's itching for tuning to finally become available for the new platform!
If you want to follow along on Instagram, here's the one he made for his car! @boosted_pomelo
Jordan is another small business owner and runs Funtown Tattoo, so if you're fairly local, or just want to check out some of his work on Instagram - Here's a link to that as well! @funtown_tattoo
